Description:
------------
No temp file is created when mod_security2 is enabled.

Possible cause that I have found is that PHP writes to a different file name in the user's temp directory when mod_security is enabled compared to when it is not.

Sample temp files created when mod_security is disabled:
phpENU1wg
upt_805677.1259779397.txt

where "805677.1259779397" is the UPLOAD_IDENTIFIER.

Sample temp files created when mod_security is enabled:
20091202-144325-SxbDWkU8c54AACEoQmIAAAAF-request_body-TgkMtk

If this cannot be accomplished, it is worth adding to the documentation that setting SecRequestBodyAccess to Off will work around the issue (though leave the site more vulnerable).

Has there been any progress or work arounds to this isssue without changing mod_security2 yet as i am having this problem?
 [2010-01-08 05:06 UTC] chregu@php.net
The current workaround is mentioned by "blepore at 
igniteworldwide dot com" in the comment above...

I don't have the time nor the intend to dig into that problem 
as I'm not using mod_security

The problem is recognised over at 
https://www.modsecurity.org/tracker/browse/MODSEC-17:

"In order to block 100% reliably we need to buffer; there's 
no 
question about that. However, buffering is not always the 
best, or 
even desired, approach. Some mechanisms (such as file upload 
progress bars) rely on having a free flow of data..."

But that won't be addressed until mod_security 3 and I've 
not found 
any info on when mod_security 3 is likely to be 
released. Very unlikely this year I'd have thought; a 2.6 
release is 
planned first and there's been very little activity on v3 as 
yet.

This package has not had any releases for 6 years, so I'm gonna suspend it, any new maintainer that decides to pick this up can re-open this ticket.

ModSecurity v3 has been released in the meantime, so I wonder
whether this issue is resolved now.

No feedback was provided. The bug is being suspended because
